I went to Dr. Kang for a second opinion after another surgeon performed a suboptimal repair of a torn biceps tendon. I had persistent post-op pain, weakness, tingling in my dominant arm. I was unable to work. Dr. Kang had to do an extensive repair of the tendon. First post-op week, I had near complete improvement in my symptoms. I had minimal to no post op pain. I developed a hematoma at the op- site and Dr. Kang had me come right in in and she drained it with immediate relief of pain. I had strict immobilzation of the arm and a prescribed physical therapy regimen. Very different experience than I had with my first surgery. am currently in physical therapy and am confident that I will be able to perform my job at the same level as prior to my injury. Everyone involved with my care-Dr. Kang, HSS, the anesthesiologists, nurses, medical assistants, physical therapists, office staff- functioned at such a high level and it is abundantly clear that HSS deserves the prestige it has worked so hard to achieve. I appreciate all they did for me.

Outstanding hands on surgeon. Ive been a patient for 10 years. Dr. Kang performed anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve (entrapment in elbow with pins and needles in my hand literally for 3 months). Most recently she performed digital nerve repair on two of my fingers from a deep laceration crush injury. She saved my fingers. Over the years when I have seen her and in between my two surgeries I have always received first class personal treatment as a patient. Dr. Kang has always been able to obtain any immediate testing that she needs while you are there. She treats you as a whole. Her executive assistant is immediately responsive and handles all the medical paperwork hassles with all insurance companies being medical or disability companies to FMLA paperwork. Top notch medical attention on all levels. Highly recommend. Both surgeries at HSS have been an easy flawless experience.
